Tiiou wilt shew me the path of life : in thy presence is fulness of joyright hand there are pleasures for evermore.—Psalm xvi. ii. LIEBESZORN 1ST NEUER LIEBESZUNDER. WlERO who dwelt by Hellefponticke ftrand, We Hangd forth a Light, Leanders marke for land. Whither his helmelefle courfe he fteerd and movd, Whilft he made hafte to fee his welbelovd. Which when fierce Boreas with his bluftring blaft Put out, he in the floods away was cafl: So that his wedding light became a torch. To convoy him to Proferpines blacke porch. Almighty God who made all by his power. Holds forth his Light from the Celeftiall Tower: That when the ftormes our tofled foules annoy. It may diredl us to our heavnly joy. No florme againft this Light can fo prevaile But Saints unto their wifht-for Haven may faile. Where for their Wedding torch this Light they have, Which never fhall convoy them to their grave. Farlies
